Bella Hunt thought the worst life got was the nanny quitting. But then she lost her job and found herself waiting for her husband to run off with his secretary to round off a trio of travesties. Going from being a high-flying fashion PR manager to a stay-at-home mother of three turns out to be a rather rude awakening, and Bella finds herself desperate for adult conversation and her own income. Her best friend and self-appointed life coach Rachel thinks starting up her own business from home is the perfect solution, but Bella couldn't do something like that, could she? **Have Your Cake and Eat it has been edited, given a new cover and an epilogue added, and is FREE worldwide for Kobo, Kindle, Nook and iTunes**

When job cuts at Chloe Saddler’s London communications firm result in an unexpected transfer to Paris, she finds herself leaving behind her friends, family, and boyfriend Scott to start a new life in the City of Light. Getting to grips with La Vie Parisienne and keeping a long-distance relationship afloat is not made any easier by the culture shock. Committing the odd French faux pas and inadvertently indulging in a few too many flirtations with her very sexy (and very taken) boss, Jean-Luc, is just the start of it. Factor in her bridezilla of a sister’s wedding (the hottest event of the year in the Saddler family’s social calendar), an unexpected session of hot, naked yoga, a slightly psychotic stalker, and one incredible kiss at an infamous Montmartre nightspot, and Chloe can say au revoir to her old, safe London life and bonjour to the romance, splendour, and glamour of Paris. A delightful debut that harks back to the early days of Chick Lit when heroines were flawed, funny, and forever battling for love and happiness. With quirky characters and classic comedic charm, Cocktails at Le Carmen is pure fun from page one.

"Hey Elle," Gavin said in a low tone, wiping the counter clean. "I bet a month's worth of dirty dish duty that you can't turn Scrooge into Santa's head elf in three weeks." Noelle Winters loves Christmas. She loves catching snowflakes on her tongue on snow days, reading by the fireplace with a big cup of hot cocoa. Christmas displays in toy shops and department stores make her happy. She loves how families get together and celebrate during the most wonderful time of the year. Christmas has this jolly, comfortable, warm, cozy, feel to it that makes her want to bury herself in knitted sweaters, light Christmas scented candles and sing Christmas carols in the middle of town square. With the cheery atmosphere in Fairview, who wouldn't join in on the holiday festivities? Oliver Hastings. He hates Christmas. Loathes it. He hates how bright the lights are and how everything in town seems so whimsical and enchanted. It all makes him want to puke. He claims that celebrating the holidays are useless and a waste of his time. So what happens when Elle's boss hires Oliver to work at Gingersnaps? A nuclear explosion of candy canes and sugar plums, that's what. She knows that no one's supposed to be unhappy on Christmas. Not even the grumpy Christmas hater named Oliver. With the help of her best friend Carol, she writes a list of things to try and get Oliver in the spirit. She's determined to show him what he's missed out on so far like; "Go ice skating", "Have a snowball fight", and "Sing Christmas Carols". She has 22 days and she's up for the challenge. last tracked achievements: humor #18 [28/12/14] teen fic #69 [15/12/14]

Two very different girls fall for two very different guys in a double romance about love and money. What happens when a corporate city girl falls for a musician, and a free-spirited hippie can't resist the charms of a successful businessman? Both women will have to face their pasts to overcome their differences and find true love. Lexi is a driven businesswoman living a high-flying corporate life in Sydney, Australia, who has her eyes on one thing only: a promotion. When a chance encounter has her suddenly housing Otis, a homeless but handsome musician, she can't help but feel that she might be able to make room for one more thing in her life - someone to love. Meanwhile, Sparrow is a beach-dwelling, spiritual hippie who lives her life in the moment, not bound by money or modern society. But because of her past, she's afraid to love again. When Thomas, a kind-hearted businessman begins to slowly break her walls down, can she forget everything she's left behind? Both Lexi and Sparrow fall hard into whirlwind romances with the very different men they've chosen, and tensions rise as they are forced to make hard choices about money, love, and themselves.
